TODAY'S IDIOM: PART AND PARCEL OF

"PART AND PARCEL OF"



If something is part and parcel of an experience or a role in life, it is an important part of it and it cannot be avoided.

Example: Actors have to accept that giving interviews about their new movies is part and parcel of the job of acting and it cannot be avoided.

Una parte importante.

Example sentences:

  • Answering email enquiries might be boring, but it's part and parcel of running a business online and you just have to do it / Responder a preguntas por correo electrónico podría ser aburrido, pero es una parte importante del negocio en línea y solo queda hacerlo.

  • Shaking hands with strangers and kissing babies is part and parcel of being a politician / Darse la mano con extraños y besar a los bebés es parte importante de ser un político.

Additional examples:
